Evaluation: The Knight's greatest asset is not its abilites (most of which are crummy), but its inherent power to

equip swords, armor, helmets, and shields (a power that can be transfered to other jobs with its support abilities). They're a good job late in the game, when you've learned all the abilities you want and now just want to maximize your characters' power (especially because knights are the only job that can equip Knight Swords, the game's most powerful weapons). When you first get the Knight job, just learn Equip Armor and Equip Sword, then move on. However, later in the game, you can make a powerful Knight by giving him/her the Equip Gun ability and using long-range breaking attacks.
